NOVUS Glass is thrilled to announce the opening of its newest location in Fergus, Ontario, where Ron and Caroline Brouwer, along with their daughter Jenna Smith, will continue their legacy of exceptional automotive care. With 20 years of experience running True Auto Care, the family brings an unmatched passion and dedication to their community in Centre Wellington.
Ron Brouwer’s journey began during his high school years, working in his uncle’s shop and honing his skills in custom exhaust, brake, and suspension work. As a person of faith, Ron is guided by The Golden Rule—treat others as you would like to be treated. This principle, alongside his commitment to communication and setting realistic expectations, has won him the respect of the Fergus community.
Caroline recognized early on the need for a reliable and skilled bookkeeper and quickly became indispensable to the business. Her customer service background ensures effective communication processes, providing top-notch service to their clients.
Jenna Smith, initially from a developmental services background, joined the family business with no automotive experience. Her ability to connect deeply with customers has made her an invaluable asset. Excited about maintaining the values her parents instilled, Jenna became a business partner in 2024 and looks forward to expanding their vision.
Since acquiring the former Grand River Glass building in 2017, True Auto Care has been offering glass services, now enhanced by their partnership with NOVUS Glass. This collaboration allows them to expand their comprehensive service offerings, which include ADAS calibrations and EV repair.
“Our building’s history as a glass shop is well-known, and we’re excited to continue providing this to Centre Wellington,” said Jenna. “Partnering with NOVUS Glass allows us to offer more services, providing a one-stop shop where customers can see friendly faces for all their car needs.”
NOVUS Glass, a part of Fix Network’s leading automotive repair brands, is recognized for its extensive training and top-tier chip and crack repair, making it a standout in the industry. NOVUS Glass Fergus’ excellent communication, along with their commitment to quality service, is reflected in memorable customer experiences, where they have been known to transform clients into loyal patrons through transparency and respect.
Committed to the community, True Auto Care engages with local schools to offer valuable skills to Coop students, sponsors local events like the Fergus Truck and Tractor Pulls, and supports the Minor Softball League.
Zakari Krieger, VP of Prime CarCare (Fix Network retail brands), expressed, “The Brouwers’ dedication to quality and community align perfectly with NOVUS Glass values. We are excited to support their growth and contribution to the industry.”
